What are the best places to discover the arts and culture of Rothesay?
Unearth ancient history
Pore over the remarkable natural history exhibits at Bute Museum, where you can trace the history of the island through its wildlife and geology. You'll also see artefacts produced by Bute's human inhabitants, including Neolithic graves, the facial reconstruction of a Bronze Age skull and Celtic and Viking treasures.
Rothesay Castle's dungeons impress with their substantial size and ancient manacles. Wandering the ramparts, you might almost be led to believe you had stepped into medieval Britain. An important bastion against Norwegian invaders, the 13th century edifice was once occupied by Robert the Bruce and later Cromwell's troops were based here.

Not far away there's a bird hide from which you can spot seabirds. Grab an ice cream at Etterick Bay Tearoom and explore the historic Stone Circle overlooking the bay.
